Understand the concept of OSPF areas and virtual links.

This page introduces EVPN technology for Layer 2 and 3 VPN services, detailing BGP control planes, MPLS/VXLAN encapsulations, and EVPN route types (Type-1 to Type-5). It explains NVO terminology like NVE, VNI, and MAC-VRF, describes BUM traffic handling via ingress replication, and outlines symmetric/asymmetric IR

Frequently asked questions.

IS-IS is an Interior Gateway Protocol used for distributing IP routing information within a single Autonomous System, operating as a link-state protocol that exchanges topology data between neighbors. It supports IPv4 and IPv6, uses TLV-based extensions, and requires configuration of area IDs, system IDs, and NSAP addresses for proper routing.

This page documents the transition from RouterOS v6 to v7, highlighting key changes such as increased routing table limits, new `/routing/table` and `/routing/rule` menus, improved route processing speed, and differences in policy routing. It includes examples for configuring custom routing tables, multi-WAN setups, and troubleshooting mangle rule conflicts.

Introduction on how neighbor relationships and adjacencies are formed.

OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) is a routing protocol used in MikroTik RouterOS to dynamically exchange route information and determine the best paths for data transmission within a network.

This page introduces IP Multicast and Protocol Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) in MikroTik RouterOS, explaining how it enables efficient data sharing across networks. It covers basic PIM-SM configuration for multicast routing between separate interfaces, including interface setup, PIM instance creation, and IGMP integration.

This section provides guides for RouterOS routing and networking protocols, covering routing decisions, policy routing, VRF, route filtering, and major protocols like BGP, OSPF, RIP, EVPN, MPLS, along with migration from RouterOS v6 to v7 for network design and troubleshooting.

Basic understanding of shortest path calculation.

Overview of OSPF protocol basics.

This section provides guides for configuring and understanding unicast routing protocols including BGP, OSPF, RIP, IS-IS, BFD, RPKI, and EVPN in MikroTik RouterOS.

This page outlines the steps and considerations for upgrading MikroTik RouterOS to version 7, detailing compatibility with features like BGP, OSPF, MPLS, and user manager settings. It highlights mandatory parameters for BGP connections, merged OSPF menus, and cautions about MPLS configuration backups.
